Abstract:
A module interface of a modular electronic device includes a data interface, coupled to a module communication network of the modular electronic device, that enables data transfer between the module communication network and modules coupled to the data interface; a power interface, coupled to a module power network of the modular electronic device, that enables power transfer between the module power network and modules coupled to the power interface; and a mechanical interface, coupled to a chassis of the modular mobile electronic device, that enables modules to be removably and mechanically coupled to the modular electronic device.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a backplane including a set of slots configured to receive user-removable modules; a printed circuit board, coupled to the backplane; and a set of interface blocks, electrically connected to the printed circuit board, that enable power and data transfer between modules coupled to the set of interface blocks.
